Seven The Chinese Army in Burma, 1942 -- 5. 520 The 1937-1945 war between China and Japan was one of the most bitter conflicts of the twentieth century. It was a struggle between the two dominant peoples of Asia. Millions of soldiers fought on each side and millions of soldiers and civilians died. Philip Jowett's book is one of the first photographic histories of this devastating confrontation. Using a selection of almost 200 historic photographs, he traces the course of the entire war - from the Japanese invasion and the retreat of the Chinese armies and their refusal to surrender, to the involvement of the Americans and the eventual Japanese defeat in 1945. His graphic account is an absorbing introduction this often-neglected theatre of the Second World War. The images show the armies on all sides and the weaponry and equipment they used. But they also record the experience of the troops, Chinese and Japanese, and of the Chinese civilians who suffered terribly through eight years of war. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed April 15, 2016). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 647 7 Sino-Japanese War|d(1937-1945)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1431391 648 7 1937-1945|2fast 650 0 Sino-Japanese War, 1937-1945|vPictorial works.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010113175 655 0 Electronic book. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Pictorial works.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1423874 655 7 Illustrated works.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026111 655 7 Illustrated works.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1423873 776 08 |iPrint version:|aJowett, Philip S., 1961-|tChina and Japan at war, 1937-1945.|dBarnsley, South Yorkshire : Pen & Sword Military, 2016|z1473827523|z9781473827523 |w(OCoLC)920727114 830 0 Images of war.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2005073516 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1213881|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
